35: Chapter 35 Yu Xiaotang wins the competition; Miaoyu Sect and Liuyun City stand in confrontation.

Lin Kuang saw that Yu Xiaotang had fallen for it, so he directly used a fake sword to replace the Fengxiao Sword.

Lin Kuang had never used this fake sword before, leading Yu Xiaotang to believe it was his secret weapon.

"Pink Nine!"

Lin Kuang prepared to use Pink Nine's combat enhancement to bolster his own strength; by detonating the fake sword during the beam struggle, he could fool Yu Xiaotang.

"Pink Nine." "Pink Nine." "Pink Nine."

The three sisters watching from the side showed surprised expressions.

"What kind of Spirit Beast is this? It's so cute! It must be even more comfortable to pet than a cat!" It was clear that Lotus and Mei Hua were entering a Secret Realm for the first time, as they didn't even recognize Pink Nine.

"This is a rare Spirit Beast. Every time it appears, it brings a valuable thunderstone!"

"Their Mental Energy is the highest among low-level Spirit Beasts! If they don't acknowledge a master, they cannot be taken as spirit pets!"

"However, it is surprising that Tangtang's future Dao Companion has such strength!" In the end, it was Chunhua, who frequently went on adventures, who explained Pink Nine's situation.

After hearing this, the way Mei Hua and Lotus looked at Lin Kuang changed.

"Hmph! You're cheating! How can you use a Spirit Beast as cute as Pink Nine in a spar? I can't bring myself to attack!" Yu Xiaotang questioned Lin Kuang while pointing at him.

Yesterday, when she brought the thunderclap sword and Five Thunder Vibration Drum into Pink Nine's cave, they had moved on their own and began slaughtering the Pink Nines. That tragic scene was still vivid in Yu Xiaotang's mind.

She couldn't let it go for a long time. Now, seeing Pink Nine again, her eyes held fear rather than affection as those scenes replayed in her head.

Something unexpected happened. Lin Kuang forgot that Yu Xiaotang had been scared witless back then and simply goaded her, "What? Are you soft-hearted or afraid? Or do you want to surrender?"

"Who said I'm afraid!" Yu Xiaotang said, feigning composure. "Once I defeat you, you have to treat Pink Nine to a meal."

"Alright! Here I come! Furnace Fragrance Overflow!" The Medicinal Pill Yu Xiaotang had refined was mengqing powder, and its power was twice that of the Black Gold Pill Lotus had just refined.

Seeing Yu Xiaotang high-spirited and showing her full strength, Lin Kuang was very pleased.

"Pink Nine Merge!" At Lin Kuang's command, Pink Nine turned into a pink aura and merged into Lin Kuang's body.

If Lin Kuang wanted to use defense, he only needed a single thought to generate a one-time shield.

"Sword Rainbow!"

The Furnace Fragrance attack was an area-of-effect attack, easily clashing with Lin Kuang's attack. However, the sword body still needed to release a few more skills to weaken it before it could explode.

"Good, hold on! phoenix cry Attack! Use Sword Qi!"

As the two forces intertwined, Yu Xiaotang immediately controlled phoenix cry to attack the body of Lin Kuang's longsword.

To be honest, Yu Xiaotang's strength was average, but her combat intelligence was certainly not low; this sneak attack from behind was very strong.

However, her strength was still somewhat lacking, and the Sword Qi failed to damage Lin Kuang's longsword.

"Break!" Lin Kuang broke through Yu Xiaotang's Furnace Fragrance.

Seeing this, Yu Xiaotang directly swallowed the mengqing powder, and her aura instantly rose significantly.

Honestly, an Pill Cultivator with teammates is truly Heaven-Defying. Not only do they have area-of-effect damage, but they can also detonate Medicinal Pills from time to time.

"Lin Kuang, get ready! This Young Miss is about to use her ultimate move!" Yu Xiaotang used all her spiritual power to go all-in and release Furnace Explosion!

"Haha! I found an opportunity! This flaw!" Lin Kuang also noticed a crack on the left side of the longsword, which happened to collide with her attack.

Yu Xiaotang just smiled slightly: "Furnace Explosion!"

Rumble—

Lin Kuang still overestimated Yu Xiaotang's attack. In the first clash, the longsword directly shattered the Furnace Explosion and heavily knocked the Pill Furnace back.

Pfft—

A trace of blood leaked from the corner of Yu Xiaotang's mouth.

"Sister, stop fighting!"

"That's right, that's right! You're injured!"

"That's enough, Tangtang, you're already stronger than us!"

The sisters were heartbroken to see Yu Xiaotang injured and didn't want her to continue fighting.

"Hahaha! Sisters, I haven't lost yet!" Yu Xiaotang's spiritual power surged as she merged her remaining strength into phoenix cry.

That's more like it! How could the Yu Xiaotang from the novel, who used Demonic Sect Sword Intent regardless of her life, ever admit defeat?

"Right! Didn't you want to become a Sword Immortal? Let's settle this with swords!" This fight was meant to increase her favorability, so he naturally had to provide Yu Xiaotang with enough emotional value.

"Very well!" Yu Xiaotang raised her head. "I don't know if you can take this sword strike!"

"Phoenix Cry Flash!"

And so, it turned into a tactless beam struggle.

Since ancient times, the one on the left always loses a beam struggle, but Lin Kuang couldn't even tell which side was left or right.

However, with the recovery from the mengqing powder, Yu Xiaotang's condition remained good.

But compared to Lin Kuang, she was still far off.

"No! I can't lose!" Yu Xiaotang went all out and began her final charge.

Break—

Lin Kuang clenched his right hand suddenly. The longsword, unable to withstand the intense pressure from both sides, began to shake violently.

Bang—

Lin Kuang's longsword shattered, and he clutched his chest as he suffered from the backlash.

"I won? I won?" Yu Xiaotang jumped up in excitement.

"Yu... Sister Yu Xiaotang won? Against Lin Kuang, who even had a Spirit Beast's enhancement?" Lotus and Mei Hua were stunned.

Because the combat techniques Yu Xiaotang was displaying now already surpassed their own, and she was even considerably stronger than Lotus.

This match gave Mei Hua new expectations for Yu Xiaotang. Entrusting the Sect to her in the future should be no problem—and even if there were, there was still Lin Kuang.

"Yu Xiaotang, I hope you can lead the Sect to glory in the future!" Lotus said gratifiedly, seeing Yu Xiaotang's strength.

"If I had a different sword, who knows who would have won!" Lin Kuang knew he had to play the part fully, adding a sentence as if he were a sore loser.

"Hehehe! I'm the one in charge of the assessment, so my rules are the rules. Besides, I told you to recover a long time ago, but you didn't. You can't blame anyone else!" Yu Xiaotang gleefully shook her head.

"Xiao Tang!" The three sisters rushed forward to offer their warm congratulations upon seeing her victory.

Just as Lotus was about to offer her congratulations, a powerful Killing Intent surged toward them.

Everyone looked in the direction of the Killing Intent and saw a silver-haired youth carrying a giant sword flying toward them.

"Who are these people? Are they related to you?" Lotus looked at the other party with a wary expression.

Mei Hua moved to Yu Xiaotang's side to protect her, just in case.

"There is a connection! However, for the sake of your Sect, we won't hold Young Miss Yu accountable," the silver-haired youth said calmly.

"But him! We're taking him with us!" the silver-haired youth said, pointing at Lin Kuang.

"Lin Kuang is a distinguished guest of our Sect. Your words don't count! Have your boss come!" Mei Hua didn't indulge Liu Ming either.

"Since you of the Miaoyu Sect are being so uncooperative, then we have no choice!" At Liu Ming's command, the disciples of the Liu Family all assumed offensive stances.

"Do you really think our Miaoyu Sect is an easy target?" Mei Hua threw a white jade dart into the sky.

In less than half a moment, countless disciples of the Miaoyu Sect rushed over from all directions, along with two Protector Elders of the Third Realm Late Stage.

Both sides were at each other's throats.
